    Food was overpriced for what it was. You’re just paying for the view. Eat somewhere else if you are a foodie for sure.

    Great experience with good quality food, drinks and view. Service was great. The only downside is that a simple small glass of gin n tonic or any other cocktail was $24 (without taxes and tips). I think this price is excessive. The price of food and other drinks were more reasonable. But great place in total, friendly staff and great management and quality of service. I’ll return.

    Great family outing for an easy Christmas dinner. Have been here before several times and have always had a great time! Definitely will be back many many times. Good was great as usual, vibe always on point and energy always on high. Love this gem.

    The service was fine and the food was average and overpriced for what you get, including the cocktails (which are half-sized for a $25 price tag.) I know you are going for the view, but they could do better and at least serve a normal sized cocktail with a full shot of alcohol. Also, if you are serving meals, you should at least have a Keurig if people want coffee with their dessert. Or what if you want Baileys and coffee at the bar? That’s not out of the ordinary request.

    The restaurant view is great but the dining room was so cold you had to wear a coat while eating. Even the servers were wearing a coat. Drinks were very expensive, $24 for a small gin and tonic.

    The food and service was AMAZING!!! I love the Vue. I do wish the Christmas menu had more of a variety and of course it's a bit overpriced...I spent $400 for a 2 person dinner...no dessert and only 2 drinks per person. But my sea bass was superb and my husband loved the ribeye.

    The experience started on a positive note with the hostess making an amazing first impression. However, the service fell short, as our server seemed overwhelmed and distracted. We never felt we had their full attention and were rushed through ordering and paying, which negatively impacted the overall dining experience. I ordered the Tres Leches French Toast. While it was flavorful, it was overly sweet for my taste. The accompanying bacon was underwhelming, lacking the crispness and flavor you’d hope for. I also tried the “I Want S’more” drink, which was a disappointment. The presentation did not live up to the enticing social media photos—it lacked flair and appeal. The drink itself had a much stronger whiskey flavor than expected, overpowering the chocolate element. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the hype and isn’t something I’d recommend. Overall, this spot didn’t meet expectations for brunch.
